简要总结
The investigators assessed overall physical activity and sleep quality in subjects with knee osteoarthritis(OA) at baseline, and at four and 12 weeks following initiation of physical therapy. Subjects received a course of manual physical therapy with interventions targeted to relevant impairments in the lower quarter. No progressive activity intervention or guidance on sleep hygiene was included. The purpose of this study was to assess a relationship between manual physical therapy and habitual physical activity and sleep behavior in individuals with knee OA.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Total Steps Per Day from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks
时间窗: 1 week of monitoring at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks
Steps per day were measured with an ActiGraph accelerometer (model wGT9X Link), ActiGraph Corp., Pensacola FL). The ActiGraph accelerometer measures triaxial acceleration and provides information about the intensity and duration of the physical activity associated with movement.
Change in Total Sedentary Time from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks
时间窗: 1 week of monitoring at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks
Total Sedentary Time was measured with an ActiGraph accelerometer (model wGT9X Link), ActiGraph Corp., Pensacola FL). The ActiGraph accelerometer measures triaxial acceleration and provides information about the intensity and duration of the physical activity associated with movement. Total time spent in sedentary was calculated based on established on established cut points, reported in minutes per day and converted to a percentage of daily activity. Higher percentage indicated more time spent in sedentary behavior.
Change in Sleep Efficiency from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks
时间窗: 1 week of monitoring at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks
Sleep efficiency is defined as the total sleep time relative to the time in bed. Higher scores indicated better sleep efficiency, with scores above 85 considered to be in the normal range. Sleep monitoring was performed using the Micro Motionlogger Sleep Watch (Ambulatory Monitoring Inc., Ardsley, NY) on the non-dominant wrist.
Change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks
时间窗: Collected at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks
The primary patient-reported outcome was the Western Ontario and McMaster's University Arthritis Index(WOMAC). It is a widely used, proprietary standardized questionnaire used by health professionals to evaluate the condition of patients with OA of the knee and hip, including pain, stiffness, and physical functioning. This scale runs from 0 to 240 points with lower scores indicating improved symptoms and function.
次要结局
- Change in 400-meter walk time from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks(Collected at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks)
- Change in 20-meter walk time from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks(Collected at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks)
- Change in Timed Up and Go (TUG) time from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks(Collected at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks)
- Change in Five Times Sit to Stand(5TSTS)time from from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks(Collected at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks)
- Change in acceleration while stepping off a curb from baseline to 4 weeks and 12 weeks(Collected at baseline, 4 weeks and 12 weeks)
